Cant say why I enjoy this game. It used to crash on me while loading, specially at the end. Also my copy had no instructions so I had no clue in what to do. And unlike many other games where you can enjoy just by walking and exploring the sites, It was not the case with 'SD:TK' because the background variety is very repetitive and uninteresting, so I cant be sure in why this game brings back some good memories.
Maybe its the opening scene, which is kind of nice, in a bad way.
The game itself is quite bland, but strangely addictive. Your main purpose it to kill all opposition. You see you are in a future time killing contest and you must kill all the criminal participants and the contest organizers too.
Remember you have 2 firing keys, M-normal fire and X-electro-flares, you only have 3 flares and you must use one for each Medi house screen.
In the end I must say I still enjoy this simple shoot 'em up.
